As fun as it is to laugh at the Oilers. The Caps continue to be a total surprise to me. The new players they brought in like PLD, Strome, Chychryn, and Logan Thompson are all having huge seasons. Players like McMichael, Protas, and Wilson are also having strong seasons. For a team that was wasting their time in the playoffs last year, they seem a lot better this year. I don't know if they're a "Contender" since they seem to lack elite talent and didn't have much 4 Nations representation. But the top 6 forwards, top 2 defenceman, and goaltending all are putting up pretty solid counting stats this year.
